IRON LEGENDS contest and giveaway

Guess what came in the mail today?

A box of shiny new THE IRON LEGENDS!

So, now of course, this calls for a CONTEST. Want to win a copy of IRON LEGENDS? Remember, this is the anthology containing the novellas Winter's Passage, Summer's Crossing, and the never before seen Iron's Prophecy. It also has a ton of extra content, like the Original Survival Guide to the Nevernever, a glossary of the characters, a sneak peek of THE LOST PRINCE coming in a few months, and a few chibi drawings by me scattered throughout the book.

So, do you want a copy? Read on.

Here is the contest. I was going to make this a Team Ash/Team Puck thing, but then I thought Grimalkin would be annoyed I didn't include him. So, to be fair, I would like you to write a 150 word post titled "Why I Love [insert character name]From the Iron Fey Series" and post it to your blog, Facebook, Tumblr, wherever. The post can be about whomever you like--Ash, Puck, Grimalkin, Rowan,ect.--but they must be mentioned in the series. Pics are encouraged, as are drawings, poems, music, .gifs, and general creativeness. Then leave me the link and your email in the comments.

On August 18th, I will choose my favorite three and send them a signed copy of THE IRON LEGENDS.

I will do this for 100% sure! ;) Tomorrow it'll be finished & then Ill send the link but for now it's to late for me in my timeline :/ Dang it, why do I need to sleep when my Team needs me & I could win this awesomeness?! Ahh! xD

I wanted to write more, but figured you'll have plenty to read with everyone else as well ;)This is such a fun contest ♥ Hopefully the link works, it was giving me a hard time. Can someone let me know? :(

Why I Love Puck From The Iron Fey Series Puck is Meghan's closest friend and would do anything for her. He is full of spirit and happiness, and always knows how to cheer her up. Puck is full of never ending jokes and pranks that can sometimes go too far, as we know with Ariella, but he is good-hearted and caring. Even though all of these are wonderful traits to have, they are not the reason I love Puck, I do because he reminds me so much of my own friends. Many of my friends are pranksters and know how to tell a good joke. When i'm upset they always know hot to get me to smile. Most importantly is that all of my friends are loving and caring and I know they would do anything for me, as I would them. Puck is always there for Meghan when she needs him, and would protect her, even if it ment losing his own life.

Hello Julie!I thought hard about how to use my originality for this. So here is my entry: http://totallynaob.blogspot.ca/2012/08/hello-everyone-today-am-i-posting-entry.htmlMy e-mail is: olivia_parsonson@hotmail.com

I truly loved it! I hope you win! (why am i saying this?!?!)I think the way you descibed why you love him what you love him for it was awesome. Very well written.I wish i could write all the reasons but i just dont figure how to write everything!Best of Luck! :)

i know this is realy has nothing to do with the comp but i but i wanted to say that thank goodness that my best friend roan is not evil like rowan from the series though that is completly random and their names r spelled differently

Hey Julie! Thanks for giving me a chance. Whether I win or not, I will STILL read it, somehow. I'll work for my dad or something and get money to buy it!! I am dyingg to see whats inside Iron Legends. <3 It's worth a try, so here ya go!

I had a lot of fun doing this and i added my own touch to it by bascically making an oil pastel and a poem. I hope that prezi is alright since it's the only thing that i can post on. :) so here it is :

Joining this contest may sound a bit easy. However, I have never read the Iron Fey series, but I was planning to read it a long time ago, but it seems like I don't have any time to read it. :) Well, good luck to everyone who participated in this contest. If I have the time, I might submit one. Heheh.

I’ll be writing for me and my bestie Why I love grimalkin 1. He’s a cat (cats r awesome).2. Annoys gloomy ash and sometimes overly perky but otherwise awesome puck. comes up with the best sarcasm in any situation (in the most entertaining way) .4. He’s the cat that always keeps you guessing (you need some mystery to life).5. My cats single, very attractive and doesn’t like cuddles (I hear grimalkin isn’t fond of cuddles either) ... :( I wanna cuddle .6. Grimalkin gets out of everything … jealousy Ok enough with the listing HE STOLE MY VANISHING ACT (I’m not a magician) but either way he’s too awesome to be ignored... how is it possible to make such an awesome character. to the awesomest thing in the galaxy don’t tell my bestie I said so thoughE-mail knbj2000@hotmail.com

Here is my entry on my very bad blog :/http://justabookgirl.blogspot.ca/2012/08/why-i-love-ash-from-iron-fey-series.htmlAdded a poem and fan art I drew myself! I am so so excited for Iron Legends! Thanks bunch for the cool giveaway!

i love your books Julie <3 I´m from germany and my english is not so good,but i tried and gave my best :D so here´s the link:http://www.facebook.com/pages/Julie-Kagawa-author/252661891438654 and here´s my e-mail: bermeta1998@aol.com

i think i´m to stupid to leave the right link... Why I love Puck,Robin Goodfellof from the iron fey series:

I love Puck because of his jokes,he´s always quick on the trigger and always knows a funny answer. I love his :Oy, ice-boy and i think i never can get enough of him. I love him,because he is brave or a bit reckless. I love him because everytime he says something i know i will smile or even laugh. I love him because he doesn´t give up when he hears about Meghan and Ash and I love him because he accepts Meghan and Ash´s love. Maybe he doesn´t like it,but he respects it,in his own way. I love him because he makes his own choices and does not always fulfill the orders of King Oberon and rather helps his best friends. I like him because he loves Ariella like a sister,because she was his friend and because he suffers and (i think) thinks that i was all his fault,but he doesn´t react like Ash and build a wall around himself. I love the moment when he said to Grimalkin that he is a :stupid favor collecting cat. I love him because he is never really serious and because he lights up the nevernever with his comments and jokes. Whenever he is around,you know that something dangerous will happen. I love him because he plays tricks on everybody and when you come to know the tricks he played in the past you always must ckuckle. I love him because he is the famous Prankster. ♥my e-mail: bermeta1998@aol.com

Of course we don't have this half-books, so this is my only chance and I hope you enjoy my work. :D I'm sorry for the languages mistakes, I tried to write as much as possible correctly, as I can.

E-mail: nikuss1@amorki.plLink: http://bucherwelt.blogspot.com/2012/08/rysunkowo.htmlThe address is strange ... I do not know why, but not signed up, as was the case. The title is different, but everything else in order.

Julie, I posted a link already, but I think it was a bad one. So here's this one https://plus.google.com/113653754665056973787/posts If it doesn't take you straight to the "Why I Love Puck" then there should be something that says "People and Pages" click on "Cherry R-V" the one that says Denver under it. Thanks xoxo <3

You already saw my entry but I'll post it here anyway. It's called LET ME LOVE YOU, Ash and it's about a penguin with unrequited love, an icey (and harrassed) Winter fey and a purring cat. Click HERE to see it (again!) ;)
